Whether you are starting the year off with the Whole30 or a 21 Day Sugar Detox, maybe you are going paleo or gluten-free for the first time or perhaps you are simply just getting back to your usual mindful-eating ways – we could all use our regular, pre-holiday routines and definitely some healthier eats. I want to make these first weeks of 2017 a breeze for all of you, so I have meal plans set for every week this month. All of the meals featured in the weekly meal plans, throughout this month, will be gluten-free and paleo, all of the recipes are free from grains, dairy, legumes and sugar (or have very simple options to make them as such).
New Year Reset Meal Plan // Week 2
Monday: Inspired by our recent travels to London and it’s amazing curry scene this Ruby Murray (Chicken Curry from Dishoom) is delicious over cauliflower rice if you are avoiding grains and if you want to add some green goodness to the dish, stir in baby spinach and frozen peas right at the end. My favorite.
Tuesday: Everything you need, in one pan. One Pan Mustard Roasted Salmon and Veggies. Make with potatoes and zucchini as the original recipe calls for or swap in sweet potatoes and Brussels, squash and green beans, asparagus or whatever combo you’d like.
Wednesday: Because burritos should never be banned from anyone’s diet, these Chipotle Barbacoa Burrito Bowls with Cilantro Lime Cauli-Rice are like the best parts of the burrito, but no fussing with a soggy tortilla.
Thursday: These Moroccan Spiced Chicken Skewers can be served with the Moroccan Mint Rice or just swap in cauliflower to make grain-free or just a massive side of your favorite veggie. Use unsweetened coconut yogurt in the marinade. Add preserved lemons when serving for an extra layer of flavor.
Friday: Another bowl, because bowls are life! Grain-free Thai Beef Bowls. These can be served over rice, rice noodles, zucchini noodles, squash noodles or my clear favorite, cauliflower rice.
Weekend Brunch Idea: If you’ve never had shakshuka, than you are seriously missing out. This Zucchini Noodle Shakshuka brings veggies to your breakfast in a new way. PS this dish rocks at any meal, breakfast, lunch or dinner.
